Honey Comb

Hi all, I have completed by undergraduate studies in Electrical and Electronics Engineering in a top Institution in India and have gained nearly 4 years experience in the Middle East (Oil and Gas) through my role as Instrumentation and System Engineer. I am looking for an entry into Aerospace and Def. Industry. and have applied to a few programs in USA. Been accepted at SMU ( systems Engineering), Embry Riddle Daytona Beach ( Electrical) and UAH (Mechanical engineering). My question is how would the programs/universities fare against each other in terms of reputation, research, student life, and employ ability after graduation ? I am aware of the security clearance requirements in USA, so I may not be eligible for certain jobs in USA. Although I am open to returning back to my home country, I hope I can recover the cost of my education before I do so. Any feedback would be great! Thanks!
